King Solomon was used of God to pen a book of wise proverbs to help govern the life of believers. One of these proverbs (4:23) says, “Keep (guard) your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life.” In this brief study, we examine a passage in Paul’s letter to the Colossians which provides three principles to help us guard our hearts (Col. 3:15-17).

These Bible messages entitled “Guard Your Hearts” were preached by Pastor Gregg Bing in 2021 during the morning worship services at Grace Bible Church in Fort Worth, TX.

Let the Peace of God Rule in Your Hearts

Guard Your Hearts

As we begin the year 20201, we still face most of the same problems we dealt with throughout most of 2020. How do we, as believers in Christ, respond to these life challenges? Proverbs 4:23 tells us that the issues of life spring from our hearts--our innermost being that encompasses our thinking, our emotions, and our will. This message is the first in a 3-part series on the need to "Guard Your Hearts," based on Colossians 3:15-17. In this message from God's Word, we consider the command to believers to "Let the peace of God rule in your hearts.”

Proverbs 4:23 gives this nugget of wisdom: "Keep (guard) your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life." In this brief 3-part series, we look at three commands given by God through the Apostle Paul in Colossians 3:15-17 that show how we can guard and prepare our hearts to serve the Lord.
